in defence of lush moisturisers

i know it might be an unpopular opinion, but i absolutely love lush moisturisers. they're the only ones i use despite having kinda sensitive skin. a lot of people say their skin is too sensitive for lush skincare, but i just don't get it. their other products might look and smell like a candy store, but their moisturisers? they're all about simplicity and effectiveness.

so let me introduce you to my two favourites - celestial and skin drink. celestial has been my go-to for years. it's lush's bestseller for sensitive skin, super gentle, hydrating, and simple. it's packed with over 15% almond oil, 5% almond milk, and vanilla water, making it perfect for those who want a no-fuss, effective moisturiser. priced at £21, it's ethically sourced, with vanilla from east africa and fair trade organic cocoa butter from sierra leone, dominican republic, and peru.

now, skin drink. this one's a lifesaver if you've got dry skin, especially in cold weather. priced at £26, it's loaded with over 20% sesame oil, 5% almond oil, and 6% fresh avocado, all rich in antioxidants. it also contains rose and aloe to calm and soothe, plus evening primrose oil for elasticity. like celestial, skin drink boasts ethical sourcing, with pesticide-free sesame oil from uganda supporting local farmers.

and don’t forget, those iconic black pots? you can either reuse them at home or bring them back to lush for a discount or a free face mask.

so, while you won't find any fantastical glitter or unicorn magic in these moisturisers, you will find gentle, effective care for your skin.

have you tried lush moisturisers? let me know in the comments! and if you're on the hunt for the perfect moisturiser, why not give lush a try? grab a tester and find your face mate.

I love this style of video! I think for me, I have visions of the lush team mixing up ingredients in a kitchen for their skincare and I wondered about preservatives to keep their skincare hygienic. I definitely would now try celestial based on your review 💕

I love Lush skincare!! I’m in North Carolina, US. In my 40’s with dry skin that sometimes breaks out. I’ve used Lush off and on for the last 8 years. My current favs are Tea Totaler to remove makeup/sunscreen, Movis, Eau Roma Water, Full of Grace, and Peace moisturizer. I just started using the Cosmetic Warrior mask and it really helps soothe acne inflammation. Thanks for the video!

I honestly think that lush is the only moisturiser I can put on my face that actually helps dry skin and does break me out😅 totally in agreement❤

I’ve never tried these moisturizers of theirs but now you’ve got me curious to! Thank you for the video 🌺, the only lush moirerizer I used to use (before they discontinued it) was the naked banana bar balm one, I loved it so much and don’t understand why they stopped its production :, ( mm awe well. I switched to Meow Meow Tweet’s moisturizers when they stopped the banana balm production and really love them but they do get expensive with shipping so it’d be nice if Lush’s worked for me since I have one in town.
